What is Thermal Expansion in Reflector Antenna about?

This document discusses a thermal-mechanical coupled simulation of a reflector antenna. The simulation workflow involves first running a thermal simulation to obtain the temperature distribution, then importing it to define inhomogeneous material properties for the mechanical simulation. This models how thermal expansion due to heating deforms the antenna. Results show the maximum deformation occurs when the reflector is 40% in shadow. The antenna performance is analyzed after deformation, with a maximum ma
